Think it this way. 120/3=40. you need three consecutive numbers, which means those numbers are n1+n2+n3=120 and middle number n2 is gotten by dividing the number 120 with how many numbers you sum, in this case 3. the smaller number n1 is n2-1 and bigger n3 is n2+1
n1=40-1
n2=40+0
n3=40+1

Julli [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of event A on the condition of event B is:

P(A|B) = P(A and B) / P(B)

P(scored an A | girl) = P(scored an A and girl) / P(girl)

P(scored an A | girl) = 0.35 / 0.45

P(scored an A | girl) = 0.778

The probability that a randomly selected girl also scored an A is 77.8%.
